Tokyo, November 11 ( ANI ): A team of researchers claim to have found a link between the occurrence of earthquakes in the Izu Island chain and subtle changes in subterranean geoelectricity, a finding that one day might help develop techniques for predicting temblors.

The team, consisting of researchers from institutions including Tokai University and Tokyo Gakugei University, analyze the relation between small changes in geoelectricity around Kozu Island, located 170 km southwest of Tokyo, and quakes in the vicinity with a magnitude of at least 3.
